This is because we spend fuel taxes on BS like high speed rail and welfare.

In California lots of funds are spent on the Bike lanes, it is ridiculous the amount of money they spend on those.

Yes. That is the truth. Limited funds, and they they apply them to things that simply aren’t going to fix the issues of travel.

For example, I am all for bike paths. I really am. But I view them as a luxury. And in a time where we are essentially borrowing money to pay for these things, we shouldn’t be doing them.

It is like a family where the breadwinner loses their job, but they are still going to have expensive dinners out or vacations. Normal behavior is to defer those things until you do have money.

Not with these liberal monetary sinkholes.
